To get from one shape to the next shape in the Koch Snowflake sequence, one replaces each line segment ‘—’ with a ‘speed bump’ __/\__. As one does this more and more times, the changes become tinier and tinier with very very small line segments. How many total line segments are there in each shape of the Koch Snowflake? What is the corresponding number sequence? (The answer is 3, 12, 48,….., i.e. 3 times Powers of 4; this sequence is not shown in Table 1)
